A spermatozoon which on entering an egg left its neck-piece outside the fertilization membrane. the fertilization membrane, broke away from its neck-piece which was left outside with the tail. Figs. 9 and 10 show the reactions of late arriving spermatozoa. Fig. 9 shows a spermatozoon which succeeded in passing through an already lifted fertilization membrane. During the process the cone changed shape and flattened out, while the fertilization membrane be- came appreciably indented. In Fig. 10 the spermatozoon reached the cone, A-C, but failed to enter. The fertilization membrane wrinkled and the cone formed accessory elevations, D—F, but, when the cone finally withdrew from the membrane, the spermatozoon was left out-.
